Amanda Seales says Erykah Badu had her fired from a writing gig. The actress and comedian made the claim during a Christmas Eve livestream, alleging Badu's romantic partner, a head writer on an unnamed show, axed her after a misunderstood comment. Seales said she called Badu crazy in a conversation about the singer's agents, intending it as a compliment between unconventional Black women. The writer's boyfriend took offense and removed her from the project.

The situation escalated with a petty follow-up text from Badu herself. Seales recalled the singer messaging her after the firing with a seemingly sarcastic note about not knowing she wrote comedy. This was not their only clash over a man. Seales also referenced a previous direct message from Badu regarding rapper Jay Electronica, the father of Badu's child, which she found unnecessarily protective. Seales stated these incidents represent a pattern of unfriendly behavior from the singer, though the job loss remains the most significant grievance.
